This training course, organized by the Border Security and Management Unit of the Transnational Threats Department in close co-operation with the Spanish National Police (Policia Nacional) is part of a multi-year initiative aimed to strengthen co-operation mechanisms between border security and management agencies of the OSCE Mediterranean Partners for Co-operation (PfC) and participating States (pS). It will focus on risks at the borders and ways to be used to tackle contemporary challenges, ranging from transnational crime and terrorism to irregular migration flows both at land and maritime borders.

The OSCE Transnational Threats Department, in co-operation with the Greek Government, will organize a sub-regional training for the promotion of practical measures for reducing international tensions in the wake of major cyber-attacks, in particular, OSCE cyber/ICT Confidence-Building Measures (CBMs).
